This is a very basic no frills, no attachments, vac. But it is only 10 pounds. So you should be able to use it on steps.

The vac would work very well but keep in mind the hepa filter is expensive. Mine does a good job on floors but I,m using for lead renovation work. For other jobs I use a vaccum wih cheaper filters.

This is the best for the stairs! It has 2 rotating brush extensions for either wide or shallow stairs, or your preference. Easily detaches, easily connects.. It is light enough in weight, that it will be fairly effortless to go up or done the stairs, doing carpet or hard flooring material. Lastly, it gets good and close on the edges next to the wall or the next step, however your stairs are arranged. I think you will be pleased, I have been!Have fun,Mark

You can use it on stairs, but the thing you have to remember is that this is a vacuum to remove SURFACE dirt / debris. It doesn't have enough suction power to pull dirt out of the carpet. This is best used on solid surface floors or tight weave carpets. In a pinch you can use it on your stairs, but if you want the carpet to be clean and to last you'll need to use standard vacuum.

Hi Charlie, I just used it to clean my steps and all corners and it picks everything, better than my main big vacuum. I only use this handset for steps since the day it arrived it. It had been a great addition to my home. I recommended it.

I moves fast on carpets. It depends on how much you have to vacuum. I use mine heavily in commercial cleaning. Your attachment head will wear over time. You can buy replacements here really cheap. You will get shoulder fatigue, but it is less than a standard vacuum. I would also suggest an oreck since it is light weight.

It is not the heavy duty big Dyson, that I thought. I got it because I have hardwood floors. It is a very small vacuum. There is a little power head that comes with it for carpet and I have used it to vacuum the door mats etc. and it is fine. I do not have carpeted stairs. It is very light weight and easy to walk around with

Yes, this would work well on stairs. My regular vacuum attachments (Hoover) don't work because those attachments are female to fit to a male fitting and the Makita attachments are male to fit to a female fitting.

Hi Meena, I would say check out a Miele Titan canister. It will handle both your laminate flooring and carpeting perfectly. It also has a long hose that can be used to catch all those cobwebs. If you are more interested in a upright you will need to buy a long extension hose to use for stairs, cobwebs and your hard floor surfaces. Uprights really are not designed to work well for floors. Carpets yes; One upright vacuum we have found to be very good on hard floor surfaces is the Riccar RSL4 & RSL5. But neither vacuum has the onboard tools that you need. The Cirrus Upright CR69, or CR79 could work well for you. It is a durable upright vacuum cleaner with onboard tools. It will not work for the laminate without using a long extension hose (extra), your wand (included) and a floor tool (extra). Please call me at 1-877-908-8227 (ask for Virginia) or visit www.newvacuumsonline.com to learn more.

You will be able to do most of the stairs, but the hose is not long enough to do the entire stairway--if it was it would be in your way every time you tried to vaccume the rest of your house. It will almost reach, just not quite.

The model that I purchased came with attachments for upholstery cleaning and/or cleaning carpeted stairs. The attachment works pretty well. I am very happy with the carpet cleaning function of my machine.

IMO, not really if they are carpet. I use a handheld 18v that has a rolling brush attachment to do my stairs. You could use the handheld hose for hardwood stairs, but it would be awkward.

This is a small vacuum for carpet corners, steps etc... You wouldn't us it to vacuum and entire carpet.

It would be perfect for stairs. No, you cannot attach regular attachments to it. The wand is much smaller in diameter.

That power head just doesn't seem to work well on bare floors. Some said it even scratched their floors. Best bet is get the kenmore bare floor tool attachment that's compatible with this vac. You'll like it and its only about ten bucks.

This Hoover vacuum does a super job picking up dog hair in a "flash," it's low on noise, easy to clean and lightweight. I have not tried stairs. My guess is the vacuum will do just as good a job. Give it a try.

Not specifically for that. Being up on a ladder with this would be somewhat risky, being it is bulky and long with the attachment. Ergonomically it would not work work well unless you are able to walk on your roof and can blow the leaves out of the gutter. I would not use the suction attachment to vacuum the leaves from the gutter if you are able to stand on the roof because it will be too risky being you have to stand close to the edge and to the gutter to suck out the leaves. So overall, the answer would be no in my opinion.
